----------------------------------------
Hmm a new OP song...not really sure how I feel about that part tbh.

The art style feels rather a bit different but I think it's easy to adapt with. Those cockroaches are still butt ugly though. And also, the way this episode started gave me the impression of a gross feel related to the conflict humanity is still engaged in.

Those screams though...I bet the VAs had a lot of fun.

Oh yeah, the super roach is back to get more punch. And the OP not feel so beating and energic as the previous series. But I guess it's okay, considering it's just the "beginning".
Congratulations for your "Payment", Akari.

How about the censorship?

I gave up on S01 because of that but I read the manga so I could hop on the train... still based on comments so far maybe I shouldn't.

There's no censorship cause there's no more need for it, it turned into some PG13 low budget crap. Everything that was good was removed.
I suggest you watch S01 uncensored version tho cause it's really good.

Wow such a faithful adaptation, it's nice to see that. The animation is pretty strange but as long as it's watchable... No censorship in sight, but there was really no reason to have one in this episode.

Nice music though.

Now I wonder how far they will be going in the original story.

I just hope this season isn't super censored like the last one. There wasn't really any need to have it in this episode but hopefully future episodes aren't censored. And I have no problems with the animation, idk why everyone is complaining (then again, I barely remember the first season so that's probably why).
People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime.

Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait.

Well, fuck.

If you wanna hate on the franchise, I beg you to hate on this one episode. How fucking terrible was that? I always thought the first season was so cool, and that's because it was manly as fuck and JOHJ!

But this is terrible, I can't even say if they're the same characters or not. Michelle was a badass woman in the first season and I hate her already now. Terrible jokes and faces inserted between the scenes. JUST PLAIN BAD.

Oh Terra Formars, how low have you fallen?

Why did they make the show kiddier?

Shokichi with that sketchy face looked so out of character.

The fighting scenes were even below to most Dragon Ball Super fight scenes.

The one saving factor for the previous season was its brutality (though the censoring was horrendous), it's art was pretty good.

They took everything good about last season, and ruined it. The art is eh, and it looks like it looks like it is geared towards a younger audience.

This so different from season 1. The art style just seems more light hearted and not as dark as before, the art doesn't have that distinct feel than before as well.
This episode had its funny moments which I did not expect from a show like this, I'm guessing there will be death in the next episode.

I dunno man. Yes the manga does have a bit of a tone shift aswell but not nearly as drastic as from season 1 of the anime to season 2. Entirerly removing the gore against the roaches aswell just seems like a strange decision. will continue watching but this was disappointng

This new animation style is nice but the former was ABSOLUTELY better. The Terra Formars were so much more frightening, and this new one look more like a shonen.

Is the new animation similar to manga?

Well, that came straight out of the first season finale, very action packed. Indeed the art style and interactions seem very different, kinda comical-ish, but we'll see. Not really sure about how I feel yet.

Didn't watch the full ep yet, but so far it seems like a better adaptation, which is great.
Also the animations seem better so I don't mind the lack of details in the character designs.

Sheesh, this art style change is BAD. Season 1's animation was a good fit and when it was good, it was good. That Adolf scene, man.

Also, even though I read the manga, I still find Michelle/Akari to be the weirdest damn ship. She's way too old for him... Like not just age-wise, her whole personality is so much more mature. It feels awkward af.

Ok new art style. It is not that bad, although the fight animations are a bit cheap and they don't have the power they had in season 1, where you could feel every punch matter. Now, especially the scene where the OP gets powers out of nowhere, their punches were weak, until the last one... I didn't read the manga, but it felt a bit censored imo. Let's hope they make more effort in the next episodes. Sorry for not perfect english :)
PS: I loved the dark themed and gore they had on season 1... now it's all gone... sigh

Well, this is what we came too after people demanding their ecchi and stuff. Now even good mangas become something like that so that they sell better. :/

I can just recommend people that are interested in the series to check out the manga and see for yourself that this isn't Terra Formars anymore.

TF has fallen hard,In S1 every punch, kick, ball etc caused body parts to explode into bug juice and shell pieces, the roaches looked like they were just getting knocked out in this episode.

The change in artstyle is the biggest culprit. It baffles my mind why on earth did they change it. Also..why change Michelle's build..taking away her buffed abs is just wrong. Also..wtf happeend to the roach gore? It was the most entertaining thing to see them get smashed, cut, implode etc.

As a manga reader I'm gonna continue watching to see how the adaptation will fare, but thus far I am extremely disappointed by the direction they decided to take this one.

This actually might be a huge April Fools' joke, I really hope so, because if not, then Sasuga (the mangaka of the series) might take his own life and we'll never get a continuation for what's currently happening in the manga, it'll be like Berserk all over.

Why is everybody defending S1 when back when it was first airing everybody called the show trash? It went beyond the censoring shit too.

One can pray. Wife and I watched it (we're running a new anime review website), both really enjoyed the first season, I'm a fan of the manga and we just couldn't believe what we were seeing.

I know.. That had nothing to do with what I just said though. S1 was bashed for pacing, censoring, how it looked, animation, cliche characters, dull story, horrible execution. How time has cured all wounds.

For me it was good, i put 7 on this anime, animation for me was bit creepy on 1 episode but futher i liked it more and more.
i watch censored and uncensored,i hated censore but on uncensored that gore was epic

After really enjoying the grittiness of the last season, I'm really disappointed after this episode. Although I'm glad to see Akira getting closer with Michelle, the whole atmosphere the first season created feels ruined. I guess the developers felt like they needed to switch to pg-13 ecchi to sell more copies of the blu-rays.
